One thing that perturbs me is that there is a line of thinking that rich or just successful people were somehow gifted their money. The current administration seems to be throwing fuel on this fire. Most of these people worked very hard to get where they're at in life. You have the Paris Hiltons out there but the majority of rich people made it thru hard, intelligent work. Even the majority of athletes and entertainers have worked very hard to reach their position in life. There's just something about hating on the rich that gets some people going.
